  1. Dont forget guys he spent over 20k on it!!!!!! so wel worth 18k If hes on here, he really needs to come defend himself, your halfway to a fecking GTR!!!! for that money lmao
  2. i was going to post this up, but i knew it was going to anyway, and your right, the next most expensive zed on there is £14.975 which is 4k difference, and the 15k one is 3 years newer !!! and has over one third the mileage!!! No doubt its a nice looking zed, but umm just no. Jeez you can get a limited edition 370z yellow edition for less than that and still with less mileage!!
  3. Never understood allowing cycles to ride on roads, surely if a cyclist hits a pedestrian by cycling on pavement, maybe a small bruise and some cuts at mosts, cyclist hits a car, broken bones and possibly fatal at most. PLus the fact they dont have insurance, i dont care if they have no engine, they still use the road. I remember a incidient local to me, taxi driver in correct lane went to take second exit on a roundabout as he exited a cyclist up his left goes straight across the exit and knocks him off, cyclist claims against the taxi and wins!! even though the taxi cctv box clearly shows the taxi in all the correct lanes, using correct indication and the cyclist wanted to exit roundabout at 3'o clock, so why on earth they on the left of the taxi! They are an absolute nuisance to to road users and can cause accidents as they just cycle off without a care in the world.
  4. MY recently sold 350z rattle on the down revs also, only did it when after i fitted a Stillen Y-Pipe, which does not have the flexi
  5. I just sold my 350z which did this, but not after 5 mins of driving, just did it every now and then, the new owner is whazza so it may be worth pmming him as i know hes looking into it to get it sorted.
  6. I did try alot and i mean alot of things to clean them, all the high quality stuff from halfords, normal valeters the works nothing worked, the place i got them done deal with Porsches, Ferraris, Lambos, GTR's etc, its quite a premium place, i knew the price and am happy to pay for a job well done.
  7. I test drove the BRZ which is a gt86 just the subaru version, was very dissapointed with the lack of power delivery, but on a windy road it was quite exciting as it handled exceptionally well, but overall id say the 350z is more fun, the power delivery is alot more prominent.
  8. omg, you got to watch this vid, you get to hear the Formula E cars in this vid, dunno about you guys but one of the bigges factors of motor racing whether it formula 1 or rally driving, is the soundtrack, nothing can beat that adrenaline rushing noise of a F1 car screaming past!! I can imagine 20 formula e cars all buzzing past, haha, i will watch just to listen to the comedy value of it
  9. Thank you, yes he did spend over an hour doing them, prepping them, etcetc, was no rush cowboy job i can tell ya. New owner is from this forum, and i wanted the lights done for a long time regardless if it was sold or not, ive sent him pics of them also Im more than happy with the outcome, considering how they did look like before.
  10. This subject gets better, there is to be a Formula E championship, consisting of 10 races all in electric formula 1 style cars, drivers have to change car halfway through the race. http://www.fiaformulae.com/ The 2014/2015 FIA Formula E Championship, the world's first fully-electric racing series, will be contested over 10 rounds taking place on street circuits around the globe. All rounds will be one-day events with practice, qualifying and the race taking place in a single day in order to reduce costs and minimise disruption to the host city. Practice All events will open with a one-hour practice session giving drivers their first experience of the circuit. They will have up to two cars available to them giving them the option to change cars should they wish. Full power (200kw / 270bhp) will be available throughout. Qualifying The qualifying session is a straight fight for the fastest laptime and determines the order for the day's race. Drivers will only be able to use one car and have a maximum of four laps - two timed laps plus and out and an in lap - in order to set their fastest time. Cars will take to the track in stages in order to avoid congestion with the running order being chosen by the driver who sets the quickest time in practice. Full power (200kw / 270bhp) will be available throughout. Race Races will begin by standing start and last for approximately one hour with drivers making two mandatory pit stops in order to change cars. Engines will be restricted to power saving mode (133kw / 180bhp) but can be temporarily increased to maximum power (200kw / 270bhp) by using the 'Push-to-Pass' boost system. Championship The FIA Formula E Championship will consist of both a drivers and a teams' championship. A driver's end of season total is made up of his/her best results less two. A team's total is made up of all its results from the season. Pit stops/Car changes During races, drivers must make two mandatory pit stops in order to change cars. This must take place in their box and be observed by an FIA steward to ensure all safety equipment is correctly applied. Tyre changes, unless a puncture, are not permitted during this pit stop. Push-to-Pass During races only, drivers will be able to use a pre-determined number of power boosts to aid overtaking. This will increase the car's power output from 133kw (180bhp) to 200Kw (270bhp) for a limited period of time.
  11. My headlights had been misty, condensated, mucky or whatever its called since i had the 350. I tried everything to clean them, but just came back up 10 mins later. Took it to a specialist Valet in my area, at £20 a light, hes made them look brand new, its changed the whole front look of the car alot smarter im well happy. Although car was sold before i had them done and deposit left by new buyer, i still went ahead and got them done because im good like that. Heres how it was before, looked alot worse to the eye than this pic does. Then after
  12. They are from Weymouth, owner of the car owns a garage.
  13. Going through some friends pics on facebook and noticed what i believe to be a green 350z near the back, is that you Keyser
  14. I am the seller, and am not scared of the bills, i have been saving for a Nissan GTR and now in a position to buy one, so to be completely honest, im not going to bother trawling garages getting diagnosing trying to fix it. Also, the engine does not misfire, it just says it does in the code readings, which is why i cant be bothered as it seems like a faulty sensor or something rather than an actual misfire. The car is still my daily driver and does everything it should do, apart from what ive listed on the ad.
  15. Hey guys, HAHA lol, if i got a light on that it would go straight to Litchfields, as they know everything and anything about the GTR, so dont expect any GTR bargain to pop up soon
  16. we fitted same as what was on it when i bought it and no, this started before new tyres were fitted and still continuing with these tyres
  17. Just had 2 new rear tires on Saturday, the ones fitted now are 275/30/19
  18. cheers guys, i wonder how busy Zed Shed crew are this weekend
  19. but the car doesnt feel like its misfiring, it drives perfect UNTIL the vdc and slip lights come on, then it sounds like its stuttering.
  20. its booked in Monday at a specialist for tracking and alignment, they have all sorts of modern machines it may solve it.
  21. forgot to add those spoiler boot lid pic
  22. Im going to list my 350z for sale, as not being very mechinally minded, im a little out of depth, and would prefer her to get treated properly with the knowledge. Its a Black 03 Reg import, 117000 on the clock, but being an import of course 80% + of that is in KM, but since then has had an engine swap from a UK model that had 40000 miles on it when it come out the vehicle. The story of all this can be read on the following thread. http://www.350z-uk.c...an/page__st__60 Its an ex Zed Shed car so its been in know how hands before while being done properly. There is a detailed thread on here of the bringing to life of this car. I bought her with stone chip galore on bonnet and front bumper, this has since been resprayed and is all now pucker. The boot lid is one area that may need attention fitting of the spoiler, including the sanding down etc of bootlid, it was resprayed but didnt match exactly, hardly noticeable until you go up close, ive attached pics for all to see what i mean. Here comes the problems, which is beyond me, and trawling garages to keep finding out what can be done is too much effort with family and business to run. I had a code reading today which brought back the following Engine: P0305 Cylinder 5 misfire detected P0311 Cylinder 11 misfire detected P1136 Intake variable Timing V/V - BI ABS C1130 Engine signal-1 C1109 Battery voltage abnormal The car will sometimes come up with the VDC and SLIP lights both lighting up, i have not tried an ECU reset yet either. Also there is a STILLEN straight through non resonated y pipe on there, which is quite noisy at 2-2.5k revs. The otherwise drives and pulls like normal, which is why i cant figure it out. So im just testing the water here with you good guys on interest before i put the car on ebay. any details or offers please pm me. I have no particular price in mind, all i know is how much i paid for it, and what im going to lose down to faults.
  23. ive looked here http://www.350z-uk.com/index.php?showtopic=20845 and that list has up to 12 cylinders
  24. he said cylinder 11 possibly because its a double spark or something?
